blubb_fallo,

The username/password is puppy/linux. That's pretty much the default on any mirror that requires login for puppy stuff.

Enjoy,

I got home and downloaded the new NOP431 with hopes that it would have the WL module for my broadcom wireless on my laptop. It was installed or worked out of the box in NOP 413.

Where can I locate and download the WL module that I need, that worked so great in NOP413?

Thanks!

PupDial

#18 Post by JMX »

gray,

There appears to be 5 missing Wvdial library files (the libwv... files). I put them into user/lib and now Pupdial works great with my USB-tethered cellphone.

The find and replace function in Mousepad is inconsistent because it sometimes appends rather than replaces. I am going to run a few more tests to figure out why...

I have some problem with booting with NOP431. After full installing I've got a massage by booting:
Kernel panic -not syncing: Unable to mount root fs unknown-block(0,0)

And this is what my menu.lst is saying:

# GRUB configuration file '/boot/grub/menu.lst'.
# generated by 'grubconfig'. Wed Oct 28 03:41:52 2009
#
# The backup copy of the MBR for drive '/dev/sda' is
# here '/boot/grub/mbr.sda.11006'. You can restore it like this.
# dd if=/boot/grub/mbr.sda.11006 of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1
#
# Start GRUB global section
#timeout 30
color light-gray/blue black/light-gray
# End GRUB global section
# Linux bootable partition config begins
title Linux (on /dev/sda1)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 ro vga=normal
# Linux bootable partition config ends
title Install GRUB to floppy disk (on /dev/fd0)
pause Insert a formatted floppy disk and press enter.
root (hd0,0)
setup (fd0)
pause Press enter to continue.
title Install GRUB to Linux partition (on /dev/sda1)

pause Press enter to continue.
title - For help press 'c', then type: 'help'
root (hd0)
title - For usage examples, type: 'cat /boot/grub/usage.txt'
root (hd0)

When I start NOP from CD everything works fine. My laptop is a little bit old (IBM thinkpad t20 700mhz, 256 mb ram).But with live CD everything was detected and works fine

If you're paranoid, verify the MD5 sum.

Ok I found a big problem in NOP 431. Be careful if you try to install gimp 2.6.3. It requires some extra libraries like gegl, babl, glib etc. Well, if you try to install it puppy will die!!! I have lost all my icons and all activity was frozen . I couldn't event shutdown my computer or start thunar or anything. Has some one expirience with gimp under NOP? The older version works fine- but the problem is about the ver. 2.6.3
I've got some warning about:
libxfcegui4-WARNING xx : ICE I/0 ERROR

Sorry, gray - tried again to install Abiword without success. When you have a moment, appreciate if you could expand your instructions. Thanks.

My experience suggests that that "Well, if you try to install it puppy will die!!!" is not true.

Yes, as i said over in your other thread: NOP lost XFCE!!!

Thank you Gray for this awesome puplet.

I found a problem with Opera though. When I right-click>Click "Open" or "Open with" or double-click on a downloaded file on Opera's download manager, nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.
